Did you know that the @ansible community libvirt collection also provides a dynamic inventory? It can really come in handy! blog.christophersmart.com/20… If that interests you, feel free to reach out on the GitHub project. Contributions and feedback welcome! 😊 github.com/ansible-collectio…

Enable full screen sharing in meetings with Google Chrome (and Chromium, if required) on @fedora under Wayland (and probably other distros) by toggling PipeWire support. chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer Thanks to @mattoliverau for the tip!

Quote from a friend who just replaced Windows with @Fedora on his desktop PC πŸ‘πŸ₯³πŸ˜Š "I'm legitimately stunned by how well F35 is working...high refresh monitor, all screens, sound works (external USB audio), Elden Ring runs flawlessly....I'm 100% floored."

Linux on a 27" LG 27MD5KL monitor with its 5120x2880 resolution at 200% scale is perfection. Fits two windows side-by-side nicely, but also has a decent amount of vertical pixels πŸ‘ So crystal clear.

Podman v4.0 has a lot of exciting new changes to the Network stack. Get all the details here in Matt Heon's recent blog: redhat.com/sysadmin/podman-n… #opensource #podman #containers

Interested in @OpenStack Swift object store? I have been working on an open source management solution using @ansible and have a basic role going. The aim is to be able to build and manage clusters inspired by @SwiftStack. See github.com/csmart/ansible-ro…

I have also put a sample @OpenStack Swift @ansible inventory, plays and wrapper scripts up on GitHub. This supports my virtual infra Ansible role too, which together lets you quickly and easily create a virtual multi-node cluster on KVM hosts. See github.com/csmart/virt-infra…

It might seem like a gimmick, but looking through commit messages online is actually easier thanks to @gitmoji. It also works nicely on the command line with grep to look for types of commits. Plus, it's just nicely done with a handy git hook. What's not to like? 🀩

Well isn't this gonna make your night gitmoji.dev/

1 @majorhayden, great move πŸ‘πŸ‘ Personally, I choose to use social media mostly for Linux and open source related connections, not my personal life. Some of the reasons why align with those outlined in his blog post.

If you're a @Docker compose users, I'd really love your feedback on whether you think this is a reasonable alternative to Compose YAML? I'd really like to see Kubernetes YAML become the standard across dev & prod: bit.ly/3HKVgZ7 #podman #docker #compose

I can't help it, I just really love #OpenSource ❀️ Every week I find something new and think to myself "oh, I really want to check that out!"

I look forward to more paid-for, privacy focused (ideally open source) services coming out... @Neeva looks interesting, but unfortunately I can't try it in my region yet.
I just came across @Neeva (via seeing its bot show up in some logs), and it looks interesting β€” a search engine where I'm the customer, not the product??? Anyone using this for real? What's your experience?

Our cloud runs upstream open source #OpenStack (no secret sauce 🍡) So when we make a change that we think can benefit our clients and us, we make the change upstream to help the entire community. πŸ‘
